READING
Exercise 1. Read the text, and decide whether the sentences are true (T) or false (F).
I’ve Been Here Before! It’s a strange sensation. A new place that seems familiar or an event that you’re sure
has happened before. How many of us have had this experience? Apparently, over 70%. It’s called déjà vu
and according to the experts is not something new y but has been happening to people for hundreds of years.
So, what explanations are there for this strange feeling that is both confusing and uncomfortable? Some
scientists think that it is related to dreams and memory. It appears that although the majority of us cannot
recall our dreams, we actually store the memory of dreams in our long-term memory. This deep memory can
come back sometimes when we are in a similar situation and makes us think that we have done this before.
However, as usual, not all experts agree. Those who believe in reincarnation - the idea that we have all lived
before - say that these feelings are fragments of memories from previous lives. But, whatever the reason for
déjà vu, one thing it shows is how complicated and amazing our brains are and that we are a long way from
understanding completely how the brain, and in particular, how our memories work.
1. Déjà vu is the feeling that something familiar is unfamiliar.
________
2. People have been experiencing déjà vu for the last hundred years.
________
3. Some people think that déjà vu is related to dreams we can’t remember.
________
4. Some people think that this is not our first or only life.
________
5. Soon we will understand how our brains work.

Exercise 3. Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, c, or D to indicate the correct answer to
each of the questions from 1 to 5.
All children hurt themselves from time to time. But when thirteen-year-old Ashlyn Blocker gets injured,
she doesn’t realise it. Once, when she burned herself, she only knew about it when she looked at her skin.
There was always something different about Ashlyn.
As a baby, she didn't cry. When she was eight months old, her parents noticed there was some blood in
her eye, so they took her to see a doctor. The doctor found a serious cut in her eye and was shocked. Why
didn’t the baby cry? Tests showed that Ashlyn had a very unusual medical condition: she couldn’t feel any
pain. This condition is very rare: many people who have it die of it. Pain is a natural warning that you’re ill
or injured. People who can’t feel pain just don’t realise they’re in danger.
The first few years of Ashlyn’s life were very difficult. She often tripped and injured herself. Once, she
broke her ankle but she didn’t stop running. During school breaks, one teacher watched Ashlyn all the time
in the playground and they had to search for cuts, bruises or other injuries. When she was five, Ashlyn’s
story appeared in newspapers and on TV. Scientists studied her condition and found she has a genetic
disorder that means pain signals do not reach her brain. Unfortunately, at the moment, there is no hope of a
cure. And, as Ashlyn knows, a life without pain is both difficult and dangerous.

hadn’t put my beach shoes on and I started to cry.
In the end, my foot stopped hurting and I felt very relieved. Finally, I went back to sit with my
B
grandparents on the beach. I didn’t go into the sea again that day, and it was the last time I ever
walked on the beach with no shoes.
Last summer, I was in Nha Trang with my family visiting my grandparents. One day, we decided to
C
go to the coast. We drove to the nearest beach, and put on our swimming costumes. ‘Don’t forget
your beach shoes,’ said my mum, But I didn’t listen and ran straight into the sea.
At first, my mother thought I had cut myself on a piece of glass, but then I showed her my foot. There
D
were four small holes where the fish had stung me. We went and asked a lifeguard for help. He told
me to sit down, and a few minutes later, he brought a bowl of hot water and told me to put my foot
in it. Apparently, the hot water brings the poison out of the foot.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the
questions from 26 to 30.
In 2008, Alex Lenkei had a problem with the bone in his arm and he needed a serious operation.
Normally, with an operation like that, the doctor gives the patient an anaesthetic so that he or she doesn’t
feel any pain. But Lenkei refused the anaesthetic. Instead, he hypnotised himself and simply told himself that
he could not feel any pain.
That took about thirty seconds. Then the operation started. According to Mr Lenkei, pain signals do not
reach his brain when he is hypnotised. The doctor, David Llewellyn-Clerk was a bit worried. He had to take
some bone from Lenkei’s arm. He watched Lenkei carefully during the operation, as he wasn’t sure that
Lenkei could feel no pain. ‘I didn’t think Mr Lenkei could hear us,’ said Dr Llewellyn-Clerk, ‘but half way
through the operation, he said “How’s it going?”’. That’s when the doctor realised that Lenkei was not in
pain. The operation lasted 83 minutes.
Mr Lenkei started hypnotising people when he was sixteen and is now an expert. It wasn’t his first
operation without anaesthetic. In 1996, a friend hypnotised him before a thirty- minute operation in his
stomach. Both operations were successful, so Lenkei had a third operation without anaesthetic in 2013, this
time on his ankle, which also went well.
